Mechanical switches can be noisy, generating multiple transient pulses that may cause faulty operation of fast digital circuits. In this design, a pair of MOSFETs are ...

This article explains the switching behavior of power MOSFETs in practical application circuits and shows the reader/designer how to choose the right device for the application using the ...

Automotive incandescent bulbs have largely given way to more efficient, reliable, stylish, and even safer light emitting diodes (LEDs). LEDs turn on in a fraction of the time and are especially useful ...

Most engineering labs have digital oscilloscopes, but many engineers don’t fully explore their features. Among the more interesting features of a digital oscilloscope is its math channel, which can ...

How to replace MOSFETs with load switches, and the impact of on-resistance. Swapping out diodes with ideal diodes, and the use of ideal-diode controllers. Why replacing fuses and resettable fuses with ...

Using a MOSFET as a switch is generally pretty simple. Make the gate voltage sufficient with respect to the source and current flows through the channel. However, if you are switching higher voltages, ...

Will contribute to more efficient circuit designs for power converters The SiC-MOSFET controls the current (drain current) flowing from the drain electrode to the source electrode depending on the ...

A new compact driver solution improves reliability, speeds switching, and reduces component count in next-generation EV and ...
